[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gatulero:
Hi There:

Not sure if anyone is exprience this problem.

My battery completly drains a second after it says is at 40%.

I've installed several ROMS (Cianogenmod 10, toldo's, official) to see if it was a ROM problem. No luck. I'm current in toldos's v7

Installed several Kernels, No luck. Actually i'm with A1 kernel

Tried several battery calibration aplicacions apps. No luck.

Problem presists.

It`s not that the battery drains fast, is that everything goes oK till battery reaches a point below 40% and the next second it says it only has 2% or 1% and can stay there for some time (even two hours sometimes.

Anyone has any idea what could be happening, because i don't think is a battery problem.

Thanks evey one

i need a driver pack for usb to ethernet.... or it would be better if some custom kernels support usb to ethernet adaptors... thank you
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gingerneil:
After a few months of research and testing to get drivers for the S3 up and running, I have now migrated to a N7100 and finally got the kernel modules building. Take a look at this thread. The last post includes the modules you need, and the first described the process for building them (which you can probably ignore), but also the process for using them.

Nova launcher could be quite good to recreate the Ubuntu home screen. You probably may have to do some looking around for some suitable widgets though. If you do that reply some screenshots, because that would be pretty awesome if it is done. I recommend doing some research about launchers though.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daniel98:
currently there is no launcher close to the ubuntu-like experience, but you can consider customizing a nova launcher install

Thanks for your notification reminding me that my reply wasn't helpful.

Every OS has its own user interface. If a launcher looks greatly like another OS, then the former might be violating the latter's legal rights (at least I think so. Ignore those iOS-style launchers).

But why don't you visit http://mycolorscreen.com/ which I saw several days ago on xda portal posts? That site offers a lot of phone beautification tutorials and you may find a UI even better than Ubuntu Touch.

Hope you find my reply helpful this time. :laugh:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v:
Hi all,

The HTC One S is well known for bad reception issues outside urban areas.

We constantly miss calls on 4 HTC Ones which were upgraded to all major ROM versions since 5.2012.

Other / older phones (HTC, Nokia, Motorola...) are always reliable in this area.

I wonder if the great aluminium design of the new One has similar issue?

Have you lucky people with pre-series phones noticed any strengths/weaknesses in reception?

Thanks

Have you tried holding the whole body on the upper part and lower part? Because that's the grip of death the iphone encounters. It is ok if you hold it normally but if you grip it fully on the upper part then that's when the problems comes in.

Thank you very much for your reply.

Was your experience in the city or outside, where the next GSM Base Transceiver Station is many miles away?

I have big hands as I didnt want to drop the phone aswell I was holding it tightly whilst covering all the back of the phone.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riyal:
Ok then thanks! And great!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v:
I am holding it in a way the GSM antenna in the lower part of the body is not covered.

Otherwise calls are not even possible where I live.

It's locked to GSM as G3/HSDPA is not strong enough.

Placing the phones on the table is enough to miss calls quite often.

No other phone we've ever owned has such a bad GSM/G3 reception in the 800 MHz band.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v:
I am sure the One S works just fine in that area as well. :)

I have a Xperia Sola and after the update 4.0.4 stock browser and optional chrome that i use has serious issues,

stock browser take too much time to load any site that i put (i dont mention heavy load sites that dont load at all)

Anyone has the same issue? Thanks for reading.

Is it possible your phone or internet is too slow, stock browser is faster than chrome for me
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] xxrahulxx:
You means now both Chrome and Stock browsers load site slowly?

If that's the case then maybe your internet connection is slow.

To check your internet speed, try downloading a file, and see what speeds you are getting.

Alternative browsers : Lightening Browser ( based on Stock), Mozilla Firefox

I guess you have DNS cache problem (and that probably occured if you didn't wipe cache/data, dalvik etc... after update to ICS).:eek:

You should try to manually insert DNS server parameters (best to use google --> 8.8.8.8 or 4.4.4.4 or 8.8.4.4);)

Or try some of modding apps to make your DNS working again - that will required *ROOT*:cool:

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karan1778:
Hello people. I bought a used defy without original charger.

The problem is, it alwas shows "?" sign on the battery icon and battery status "unknown" in settings.

I have been reading through xda forum since 2 days but didnt find a solution for that.

The phone was at stock rom with the problem. If I connected to usb for charging it gave me an error " battery invalid, use original motorola ...."

Moreover it also doesnt charge with usb or my other nokia, samsung charger (micro usb).

Then i searched through the forums. Some proposed the solution of flashing sbf or buying new battery. I cannot buy a new battery yet I spent all my money on this phone.

So I tried sbf flashing and battery fixes. None worked.

So I request you experienced users to help me solve this problem.

I have tried cm 7.2 the battery shows "?". On cm9 and cm10. the battery shows okay but it doesnt change the percentage. say if it is reading 55% at first, then it will keep showing 55% till the phone is out of battery. It still doesnt charge.

However if i boot into the bootmenu, the battery stats shows correct ( I assume it is correct because it lasts according to the percentage showed in the bootmenu).

clearing cache, data, batteyr stats, or dalvik cache, nothing works.

Please help me. I dont want to buy a new battery that costs here for 20% of what I bought this phone for. I also tried to adjust the battery terminals, didnt work.

The battery is ORIGINAL. And I'm currently charging it through nokia 5v 1200 mA charger by a setup i made to connect the charger wires with the battery +ve , -ve.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karan1778:
Anyone for help ?

Anyone for help here?

I think I will have to get a new battery. I'll order it some days later..

Till then, can anyone help me by providing the resistance values from the battery?

B/w "-ve" and the 2 other pins except the "+ve" ? If you have access to a multimeter can you do that ?

I want to be sure if its the battery. It may help other users in future.

The latest version GThrill ROM is based on "CM10" rom from needrom.com. I have applied some tweaks, removed some apps, added some and added option for the selection of EN (ph, us) language. The original purpose was for personal use, but I thought to share it, in case anyone wants to try.

CMW recovery flashed but no go :(

Hi there,

I tried to get into the newly flashed CWMR but somehow I've failed. What I've done is use mobileuncle tools to get into CWM 5 and from there flash the zipfile I've downloaded from the sources. Now the CWM app does boot into recovery but I get this little android figure with a ! from it's belly. Not good I suppose.

I'd realy like to try out this rom but without working recovery I'm a bit scared I'm going to brick the thing....

Could you please advise??

Greetings,

Andreas

Installed last night.

Looks nice, work fine, stable. Well done :)

I have only one issue.

USB won't work.

When Jiayu is connected to PC, USB storage is not recognised. Any solution for this?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ng0tkul4:
boot into normal Android and run MTKTools again and flash CWMR... this time, do it three (3) times in a row, before rebooting.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ng0tkul4:
i'm not sure, may be you need correct drivers installed to your pc.

try using different USB port of your PC
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Hamacio:
Drivers are ok. Tried every single port. Worked fine 2 days ago - Jiayu was with ICS 4.0.4.

Not recognised as a mass storage.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] andreasheijdendael:
dd rules!

Didn't work. Got it working using the dd method (way easier if you ask me :) ).

Now, I've installed CWM 5.5.0.4 in /dev/recovery but when trying to flash the zip file for the LewaOS rom it gives me 'cannot open file'. Is that because I need the newer version of CWM mentioned in the opening post? Or just something else? Perhaps because there's 'spaces' in the filename? I'll let you know if I find something out there ! :)

** Update **

I downloaded the correct rom but still no go :( It just doesn't want to install the rom...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Hamacio:
Hi

Reflashed again.

Everything is fine. :)

I think is slower than original ICS 4.0.4 ROM, but stable and good.

Keep up good work! :)

***Update:***

Battery life much improved, at least 15-20% :)

I found this ROM very good so far.

There's only small issue with some mobile web sites. Some of the links cannot be open.

I've installed Opera browser in addition but is exactly the same so

I'm not sure: maybe there is a problem in ROM or badly written mobile web sites.

Thanks a lot :)

try extracting the the zip file you downloaded using <your_zip_util_progam> and see if it's getting extracted without any errors.

Re: [ROM][LEWAOS][Recovery] GThrill for JIAYU G3

Ordered but yet to receive my Jiayu G3..

It's good to know there's a somewhat active community for the Jiayu G3 and other MTK MT6577 - based devices!

I've heard sources have been released: do they happen to include kernel ones? It would be amazing to see some overclocking and undervolting options..

Does this ROM come with Developer and Performance options? Also does Themes option work? It would be nice to see a list of known issues / bugs in the OP as well..

Well thanks

Hi you should have kept this rom on the old thread where i left my instructions to the rom i had .

You did a brilliant write up here but and well on my rom yep the GPS satalites could not be found..that;s because of a hardware problem many people are experiencing.

However me being determined to try to get my GPS working i installed your rom , i hate it now im in deep **** the GPS didnt work so i tried to boot into recovery and go back to my old rom. no matter what i try cannot boot into recovery pc will not pick the Phone up..

I really hope this rom works for other people as they write but god im buggered nothing i can do been trying for 2 days now stuck with your rom and i cant get rid it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ng0tkul4:
why?

try other ROMS like that of the stock LEWAOS to see if it installs.

may be there's a problem with the installer you are trying to replace it with
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Hamacio:
You can also try Mobileuncle and reflash recovery only.

If your Jiayu is not recognised by PC, try with other USB cable.

If Bootloader is ok, what is the problem?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] andreasheijdendael:
I've unpacked the zipfile as you said. It doesn't show any issues there.

my apologys

Hi i have noticed something interesting which im not sure if anyone else has or noticed this problem.

Took out my SD card from my phone put it directly into the PC pasted accross again cwm5 (even though it already was there and worked before)

It seems that every time i want to boot into recovery mode i have to copy across CWM 5 again .. each time if i try to boot into recovery with the same CWM again ed up with robot on his ass. managed to install the original rom now working Fine.

I have no idea why this happens

I have tried various GPS software and thought i had a hardware problem however downloaded sygic left the phone next to the window on a clear blue sky day took about 15 minutes but got a sattalite fix ..

keep up the good work guys and my apologys to the main forum starter :)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mengfei:
what loader are you using? CWM or TWRP?

you just copy the lewa ROM to SD got to your recovery/ loader then flash

BUT before flash do a factory reset in CWM/ TWRP so that you have a clean NAND where the ROM will be flashed.

all data will be deleted, so do a backup if need be.

I installed it yesterday, so far android is working fine.

But i am facing issue with front camera. The image is dark. Camera is taking pictures but with very low brightness.

In camera settings, if i increase exposure to +2, then i am getting better image but with lot of grains (may be because of high exposure).

It can't be hardware issue, because it was working fine with stock ROM. Can i go back to stock ROM camera app ? is it possible ?
